Topic: Aggressive female mouse... (Read 1269 times)

I work at my local humane society and we had gotten a female mouse in, which has bitten everyone who trys to examine it. I've been asked to foster her until she calms down. Would getting another female mouse that is well socialized help her out? Or just stick with her for now?

My first rats were a timid/agressive pair. One was so bad it lunged at my hands when grabbing for their dishes, it would wake up from the sound of the top opening and be waiting. Her sister was super skittish and would nibble but not bite hard. She definitely was more comfortable with her evil sister around. When I had them out of their tank for cleaning they'd be in two seperate container things and the shy girl was definitely worse by herself.
